"Every human being is interested in two kinds of worlds: the
Primary, everyday world which he knows through his senses, and
a Secondary world or worlds which he not only can create in his imagination, but which he cannot stop himself creating."

Allied Command Transformation is investigating technologies that may be used to augment or replace existing technologies for education and training as well as capability development. One of the investigative streams is in virtual worlds. ACT has placed Engineering Computer Simulations of Orlando, USA under contract to develop two worlds. The world featured here is a representation of how the new HQ SACT and National Liaison Representatives buildings will look when construction is complete in 2010/2011. To the right and below are the entrance and foyer area of NH-31. Below are screenshots of some of the existing conference rooms. These conference rooms have been constructed in detail so that when staff use them virtually for meetings the surroundings will feel familiar. Any questions concerning these worlds should be directed to Wayne Buck at [email protected]

Skill Building“Yo‐ho‐ho and a vat of anthrax! Checking cargo ships for WMD and contraband isn’t exactly swashbuckling. In fact, as a NATO video game makes clear, it’s actually a lot of dreary, methodical work.”

The marriage of nanotechnology and AI will bring us "a killer app"‐nanobots that can keep us healthy from the inside. These will also enable "full immersion virtual reality from within nervous systems" and expand human intelligence, facilitating "brain to brain communication.
